No surprises are expected in Sa Pinto's plan for the derby with AEK
At APOEL they are completely focused on their preparation for their match against AEK at the “Arena”, on Sunday (March 31, 17:00), in the context of the 5th game of the final phase of the Championship. Ricardo Sa Pinto and his footballers know the great importance of this very difficult mission and are determined to get a good result with a good performance that will give them a better mentality – more confidence ahead of the second round of the playoffs.< /p>
The internationals, Belets, Dvali, Kvilitaia, Konstantinov and Kittos, Satsias, Vrontis, return to the training center healthy and are placed at the disposal of the technical leadership. We even estimate that all 4 foreign internationals who had playing obligations will be in the lineup for the derby with the yellow-greens of Larnaca.
Sa Pinto's “experiments” in the derby of the ages resulted in defeat and will not be repeated. Even if we are in the middle of the week, we estimate that the Portuguese coach's plan will include the 11 most reliable options in the season we are going through.
Belets will be in goal. On the right end of the defense, Chebak and on the left, Vital. The defensive central duo will be Petrovic with Dhvali. The Georgian “giant” may be “loaded” with 210 minutes in the matches against Luxembourg and Greece, but he cannot afford to stay on the bench.
The midfield will be made up of Konstantinov, Dalsio and Vijafanes.< /p>
Kvilitaia will return to the top of the attack with Markinios, Endogala at both ends.
Tasos Donis is claiming a place in the eleven, who is in excellent condition and can provide solutions with speed but also his ability offensively.
Crespo will remain out of action and (if everything goes well), he is expected to be available from the next match.
